Her Husband's Secret Affair novel Chapter 9

“Let go of me!” Sophie shrieked, hitting him with all her might.

Adam’s expression hardened as he stepped in her way, blocking the exit. “No we’re not doing this, Sophie. We need to talk. Now.”

Sophie stared at him, her eyes full of fury and pain. “Talk? You’ve had your chance!”

Adam didn’t flinch. Instead, he stepped closer, his voice low and firm. “You can try to walk away but I’m not letting you go that easily.”

Before she could react, Adam’s strong arms wrapped around her waist, lifting her effortlessly off the ground.

“What the hell are you….Adam, put me down!” She screamed, kicking and squirming in his hold.

Adam didn’t respond. His grip tightened and with one swift motion, he carried up to the stairs, ignoring her desperate attempt to break free.

“You can’t be serious right now!” Sophie fought him but the more she struggled the stronger his hold became.

He didn’t answer, his jaws set with determination. Reaching the bedroom, Adam kicked one the door with his leg, slamming it shut behind them with the key. He moved to the window and threw the key out

“That’s it. We’re locked in here until we sort this out,” he said, his voice thick with frustration. “I don’t care how long we stay here.”

Sophie was breathing heavily by the time he dropped her, her chest rising and falling asleep her mind raced. She glared at him, refusing to let her guard down.

Adam stood across from her, his eyes searching hers. Silence stretched between them, rich and heavy until Adam finally broke it, his voice cold and firm.

“You’re leaving over my dead body, Sophie!”
